I like this team a lot. Get some more chemistry and they can be very good. I bet we see steady improvement all season.

cruiserhead Truly Addicted User

3:03pm

Lot of tripping and falling going on

icecougar

3:03pm

Call a foul. Baker fell because he was pushed

cougaman

3:03pm

I’m grateful that they aren’t making me sweat this one out #givethanks

DieHarder

3:02pm

So they’re calling everything on BYU, but Baker didn’t get fouled at all there?

ldssdl

3:02pm

Seriously. Can’t be ticky tacky only on one end

VirginiaPeanut

3:03pm

Baker shouldn’t have made the NC State player trip him

Littlerich

3:03pm

Baker looks mean

Dark Forest Green

3:03pm

Going to be really interesting to see how this rotation tightens up in the next month. Have to get it to 8 guys

TADOW Intervention Needed

3:02pm

Bosko is pressing bad today.

BoiseBlueCoug

3:02pm

Bench with 19 so far is a real plus

BoiseBYU1

3:01pm

We have a deep bench.

Japan Coug

3:02pm

Arizona is in deep trouble this year.

IronPotato

3:00pm

Maybe a little premature. Lol.

IronPotato

3:01pm

Saunders reminds me of the Chevy Chase

CasualFan

2:59pm

Dang. O'Connel's got a dome. Man, his head hit hard.

SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

2:59pm

Why does Catching play hot potato at the FF line?

The Chief

2:59pm

There is no way he isn’t concussed

BenTheBoss

2:59pm

The team needs to focus. NC State has caught our defense sleeping several times.

ldssdl

2:59pm

Scoring is very evenly distributed.

Chefcurry

2:57pm

I love our depth this year.

brj8

2:58pm

We are moving the ball. Passing well.

Bluforever

2:59pm

Not the finest hour for officiating

DavisCoCoug

2:56pm

My guess - Kevin Young will spend about 17 seconds in practice discussing turnovers and shot selection.

cougfanblue Assistant to the manager

2:56pm

I'd say 20 seconds. But since you like to pretend to know what you're talking

foofcoug

2:58pm

Mahomes.. hahhahahahaha

Belboz

2:54pm

We are doing all the things that we should have done yesterday.

BigHouse Coug

2:54pm

Yep… totally different level of defensive intensity from NC State.

BoiseBlueCoug

2:55pm

That ref had a horrible angle to make that call rewatched it a few times

cougsareforreal

2:54pm

I love Greg Wrubell, but he doesn’t have to clarify how many times BYU has held

Polecat

2:53pm

That is a gap filler for him for sure.

Kdubb

2:54pm

I agree

BYUJoJo

2:57pm

Catchings is cash on catch and shoot and when he doesn’t force shots

ChubbyMoose

2:53pm

LOL. Nc state player has back to the ref so he can’t see a thing. Oh, he’s in

HRCougar

2:52pm

Former BYU runner, Sadie Sargent Mitchell, has signed a pro contract with Nike and will train with Diljeet.

CrimWalCoug All-American in practice

2:52pm

That’s a jump or a turnover the guy lost it they bailed them out

franklyvulgar

2:52pm

Keita kinda came in and hit him with the body imo. I’m not as bothered by that

cougaman

2:52pm

How come the announcers can’t tell you what the call is half the time?

Genghis Spreads

2:52pm

Feels like Team starting to Gel on both O and D

Coug76

2:52pm

They are today. This team's going to get better and better. So much talent.

Adrielle

2:53pm

If Catchings can hit that step back at a high level. That is almost ungaurdable

FT487

2:51pm

Only one blocking that is Wemby

Adam_Pontipee

2:52pm

Beautiful. This team wins yesterday.

SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

2:51pm

The issue is Mississippi is a much better defensive team than NCST

TADOW

2:53pm

Still too many turnovers but a ton of talent. Clean it up and they'll be great

ImRonBurgundy?

2:54pm

We will get better and better as the year goes on. I expect that if we played

cougsareforreal

2:55pm

Is Catchings like a poor man's KD?

Mr. Belding Truly Addicted User

2:51pm

Not really. He is more catch and shot rather than shot creater

Big Tuna

2:52pm

You watching? He's got both.

SinkingQuffa

2:53pm

Well, I’m pretty sure our NIL is less than the Suns.

Bluforever

2:52pm

Would be interesting to watch 18 year old KD vs Catchings

VirginiaPeanut

2:52pm

Without the threat in the lane yet. He's got the skills to get there, though.

SinkingQuffa

2:53pm

Very similar skill set

puntersarepeople

2:53pm

What channel is the game on?

Six Foot Seven

2:50pm

Local Fox

beefytee

2:51pm

Defense looking much better today thus far

Kdubb

2:49pm

I like the way Keita plays D one on one away from the basket. Does a good job

FT487

2:49pm

Keita gotta go up harder than that

cruiserhead Truly Addicted User

2:49pm

He’s a solid pickup but he ain’t Fous

Bluforever

2:50pm

Lol that spot was atrocious

jigidajrit

2:48pm

I was disappointed when they didn't attempt a long field goal

Belboz

2:52pm

C’mon Keita, you got a guard on you on that roll. Go up and dunk it!!

icecougar

2:48pm

FINALLY. We get a call.

YSMACK

2:48pm

Ref waited until the shot was missed to make the call

cougaman

2:48pm

Amazing deals on Black Friday!

WP17 King of the Kenai

2:46pm

Pay me

AF Cougar

2:47pm

That is some ugly merchandise- I'm surprised any would by that stuff

acougfan

2:47pm

Fire starters?

Blueto

2:48pm

Catchings a black hole. No need to force so many shots.

Mr. Scoobs

2:45pm

That is spot on. When he doesn't force it, he is great. Otherwise ...

YSMACK

2:46pm

I think a big goal out of half was to get him going. So first play was designed

Bluforever

2:48pm

I think Kannon still thinks he's playing AAU ball. So many bad shots

ImRonBurgundy?

2:45pm

He has a sweet shot when it's in rhythm. Just needs to let the game come to him

ImRonBurgundy?

2:48pm

So phrasing's just not a thing anymore?

sethj250 Just happy to be here! TDC

2:45pm

Just take care of the dang ball!!

PING Man

2:44pm

So did Fox Hoops purchase the 1990's NBA on NBC theme song? Always liked that.

RenoCoug

2:43pm

Yeah, I was wondering this too.

Japan Coug

2:45pm

POLL: Is tonight Whitt’s last game?

arizonacougarfan

2:42pm

I doubt it

Dark Forest Green

2:43pm

I think he wanted to be done with a BYU win. Devil making him pay the loan back.

Shore10

2:44pm

Ole Miss is ranked #14….? Why?

d10e15

2:41pm

It just means more

HBP

2:42pm

Hypothetical dominance of the Big 12

RenoCoug

2:42pm

I guess they pass the eye test- but seriously there is a huge SEC bias

acougfan

2:43pm

POLL: Who deserves to win the Heisman this year?

Hambone

2:40pm

Anyone but Jeanty. Don't want the Spud Truckers to get a Heisman.

foofcoug

2:48pm

Utah state actually seems to have a good offense quite good

franklyvulgar

2:40pm

They should promote their OC to head coach imo.

DieHarder

2:40pm

Offense and defense seems to play better with Barnes at QB

530Coug

2:44pm

Honestly usu has looked great the last 3 games. Maybe they should just retain this staff.

RdF3

2:54pm

With the new roster cap of 17 who will be on the BYU Men’s Cross-Country team in 2025?

CrimWalCoug All-American in practice

2:39pm

My biggest thought after the first half: I need some form of subscription so I can watch games on Fox.

Malcolm Reynolds All-American

2:38pm

You could get an antenna for $20 bucks to do the trick in most places.

DieHarder

Did the men get turnoveritis from the girls basketball team?

RootieBoy

2:38pm

Will the committee call a loss to MSU a good loss for “Ole Miss?”

Iman23

2:36pm

So Arizona just stinks this year? Might go 3-4 after today.

Chefcurry

2:36pm

Good. Top 5 slimy coach of all time. Such a dirty cheatbag.

byubyu

Tommy Lloyd??

LakeshowCougs

Huh? Tommy?

rivercitycoug

2:38pm

The dude from Gonzaga?

Big Daddy D

2:39pm

My bad. Forgot Miller wasn't there anymore. Screw Tommy Loyd though too.

byubyu

Tommy Lloyd seems like a solid guy

What did he say? Was it more biased SEC nonsense?

BackPacker

2:42pm

The Madsen family might have set Mormon name stereotypes back 20 years:

That’s . . . Umm different

10-4 FT disparity, 9-5 turnover difference. The team is shooting well, but need

some ghost calls on several fouls on BYU on NC ST. drives to give NC St. free

Wait we’re ahead? I went to CB first and the whiners are out in force. Thought

BoiseBYU1

2:32pm

Welcome to CB. Thought that was common knowledge.

BoiseBlueCoug

2:34pm

Shame on me

BoiseBYU1

2:35pm

Yeah, it's kind of a miserable way to watch a game.

SoCalCoug

2:35pm

Do you say this every game?

Dark Forest Green

2:35pm

First time, but I think I pretty much could, don’t you?

BoiseBYU1

2:36pm

RE: First time, but I think I pretty much could, don’t you?

BoiseBlueCoug

I don't say it. I'm here and know how it is.

Ok. Peace to you

Soo bad...after BYU was in bonus did we shoot FTs after that? Poor officiating.

coug10278

2:31pm

All NCS hands on BYU all the time?.no calls.

sfeuz

2:34pm

9 turnovers is too many. Every couple minutes it’s like we hand the ball over

OU Cougar

2:31pm

Roderick!!!

Belboz

2:32pm

Well. Somebody has to be fired.

gwalker

2:34pm

College basketball officiating is so subjective and almost makes the sport

YbeatsU

2:30pm

Love our talent, love our team, but the offense is still very clunky and sloppy

NOCAL_YFAN

2:29pm

This clunky offense is up 11 to a team that went to the final 4 last year just

franklyvulgar

2:30pm

Why does what they did last year matter?

byubyu

2:31pm

kenpom has nc state rated 61st, so definitely second best team BYU has gone up

cwilke1

2:34pm

Isn't Kenpom still using data from last season?

byubyu

2:38pm

google search says that the previous season data will influence rankings until

cwilke1

2:44pm

it looks better than NC St.'s offense, but definitely clunky going up against

cwilke1

2:31pm

Several of the turnovers have simply been due to a passer misunderstanding the target's intentions.

cougfanblue

2:32pm

Yeah, gets sticky, off-ball movement can be stagnant, leads to turnovers

RenoCoug

2:35pm

You're not going to see as much off-ball movement as we've seen in the past.

cougfanblue

2:43pm

Some pretty stupid calls by the refs. Every 50/50 call has gone Mcconnels way

UnoDoctor

2:29pm

Refs were really looking to even up the scoring late in the half

JuicyJam

2:30pm

Baker! That was the easiest shot you've had. Solid half for him though.

coug10278

2:29pm

Just a small sample. But I never want to see Demin pass it off to Baker with

blackandblue

2:29pm

You are right. It’s a small sample. Of one, actually.

Big Daddy D

2:29pm

It actually worked. Baker juked his guy and had open lane for floater.

coug10278

2:33pm

Demin has got to start taking the ball to the rim more.

BoiseBlueCoug

2:28pm

I would love to see him develop his drive and dish game.

BigHouse Coug

2:32pm

and another short kick, but that one was a little longer.

Belboz

2:28pm

Baker can be Kamikaze out of control.

BigHouse Coug

2:28pm

Richie

Cnation

2:29pm

He isn’t strong with the ball. Gets knocked off his spot easily

LakeshowCougs

2:29pm

Richie is strong with the ball, though.

BigHouse Coug

2:30pm

Yes, but Richie isn’t in control. He is full speed ahead regardless of what’s

LakeshowCougs

2:33pm

Richie = hair is on fire every play. Very effective in many situations, not all

Big Daddy D

2:44pm

Compared to Hall & Demin, yes. But no one else can even give what he's giving us after those two.

SinkingQuffa

2:33pm

I agree. Doesn’t take away the fact he is a weak ball handler. Glad he is our #3

LakeshowCougs

2:36pm

He's no PG. He's also very rusty understandably.

SinkingQuffa

2:38pm

Fair points. He needs to work on his handles

LakeshowCougs

2:40pm

He's definitely getting an advanced course today. And taking his lumps.

SinkingQuffa

2:41pm

He is also getting his. Hopefully as the season progresses, he will get better

LakeshowCougs

2:43pm

We need some guys to stretch themselves a bit against these speed-superior defenses. He's doing fine.

SinkingQuffa

2:31pm

I'm okay with anything as long as it doesn't result in a turnover.

BigHouse Coug

2:34pm

They're gonna happen against NCSt, though. You gotta risk some if you want points against athletes like that.

SinkingQuffa

2:35pm

They have 9 offensive boards. Gotta do better on that in 2nd half.

If standing straight with arms straight up is a foul, then yes.
